If you want to play/debug with Sqoop/Hadoop on Windows - you can install the HDInsight Emulator on your machine. This will install a singe node Hadoop deployment that includes sqoop and sqoop connector.

The following post which I have written can guide you through the process. It shows how to install Hadoop and SQL Express on your dev box and how to import/export data via Sqoop.
